Hey Ben,

Yeah as Rogue said, the key is good wheel alignment. You need to probably ask around a few of the rod guys and find a shop that knows what they're doing with wide tyres. Then talk to the shop and see what they know about CF's. If they set it up wrong you'll cut tyres out real quick especially if they're wide. Once done keep an eye on them. Check them every few weeks of so and any sign of scuffing take them back and bleat over the shop that did the job. If they're any good they'll be able to see from the wear pattern what needs to be altered and fix it. If you leave them too long you'll loose the tyres.

Cheers,
Garry.

hey Garry, over here we need to go to a truck alignment centre, in the past i have been told that a normal place like beaurepairs can't do bedford vans, they are to wide or to this and that. Having said that the last time i tried was back in 2000, so i dont know if things have changed over the years.
George. ;D

It all depends on what the hoist set up is or if they do it over a pit like one of the guys doen here in the south. My olf van would not fit due to the wing mirrows hit the pillars on the hoist.
